Latest Forum Topics Lagging?

by **Idzequitch** » Mon Sep 07, 2015 4:00 am

The "Latest Forum Topics" sidebar is not updating. It's showing me threads that haven't been posted in for nearly 8 hours. I don't know if it hasn't caught up since the site was down, or if it's some sort of problem with my computer/browser. Obviously not a huge deal or emergency or anything, but something to look at if it's broken or something to ignore if my computer is just being contrary. Many thanks.

Yes, I'm aware; I was locked out just like everyone else, and if you would have read my post, it referenced the site being down. So, that does not answer any question that I asked. The Latest Forum Topics still has not updated for me, and still shows the same topics it did when I first posted this, and apparently at least one other user is experiencing the same issue, so the problem is probably not on my end. As I said, it's not an urgent problem, but it is something that a technically minded mod/admin should probably look at when they have the chance.
EDIT: I just checked on two other browsers, and still encountered the same thing. It doesn't seem to be browser related either.

Just pointing out that this would be better posted in the main thread.

The Admins are aware of it.

Same problem here.

There's no need for "I also have this problem" reports as it's a known problem. Thanks.

But we don't really know that the two are related, do we?

Since it quit working around the time of the DoS attack only one can suppose, but the Admins are the true knowledge holders right now.

I know what broke it, but I am not sure if that is public info, so I'll leave it to the admins to explain or not.

Nevermind, I thought I knew, but I'm just a silly cat. It was the DDoS that caused it.

Silly cat.

Well, thanks for keeping us in the loop.

We switched around some IP addys in response to the DDOS attack, and I didn't whitelist one of the new ones properly, causing the forum server to refuse to tell the game server what was hot and happening in the forums.
